Pardew Looking To Control Hammers

15 October 2015

Eagles boss Alan Pardew has suggested that his side will look to control the game when West Ham United come to Selhurst Park on Saturday.

Last time out Palace recorded their most complete performance of the season so far, recording their best possession statistics, having more shots on goal than in any other game and generally playing West Bromwich Albion off the park - something Pardew is keen to replicate.

West Ham come to Palace with a near-perfect away record, having won three and drawn the other in their four league games on the road, and the gaffer said he was aware that they would be looking to hurt the Eagles on the counter attack.
